Mahz's Dev Journal

[RoflsMazoy]

Any chance that there could be a random button for interest checks or RPs?

It'd be nice for people who feel like doing something but don't know what to be doing

[SgtEasy]

@RoflsMazoy

I don't know dude. There are some interest checks and roleplays that have been there since the relaunch and so are basically dead. I don't know the specifics but Mahz'd have to filter by the date it was made or something.

[Ellri]

maybe some sort of "last accessed" function involved? So that interest checks not accessed in the past n days are ignored?

[SgtEasy]

@Ellri

Wouldn't that have problems too? I visit some of those roleplays and checks sometimes just out of curiosity and there's bound to be more people who do that. Maybe average amount of visits then? Maybe in three days or a week or so?

[Ellri]

aye, it would @SgtEasy. In general, we think a system like this would be very hard to balance out fairly.

It would perhaps be better to get the tag system coded to where it was originally planned to go, where clicking a tag would be possible, or even searching based on tags.

[SgtEasy]

@Ellri

Yeah, that would be much better but I guess that isn't really what @RoflsMazoy is asking for... But what he or she is asking for is much more difficult.

[Ellri]

Aye.

As a simple solution, "has been posted in during the last two weeks / month" would be a sufficient temporary workaround.

[RoflsMazoy]

You could always have settings for like, RPs that have had posts in them in the last hour, or last day or something like that

@Shienvien

I was coming here to say this, but you beat me to it. Good on you.

I come here to make this, a humble suggestion for those who code for the site though specifically Mahz. In my time in the Chat, I've noticed that we can't accurately cover the entire chat and keep it under control with the current setup of Mods. Thus, I'd suggest the possibility of creating a subsection of Mods specifically for Chat as, in recent weeks, it has seen a large increase in activity. With this activity has come some... unsavory conversations and difficulty in controlling the chat. Thus, I'd like to suggest we have a Mod, of some kind, who's job is to moderate Chat as the need be and thus we can keep Chat under control and a safe place to be.

@Mag Lev

Coders are not able to help much, but @Mahz is.

I'd be able to make a chat mod quite easily, but it would be on @Mahz to implement it and appoint the mods.

[Ellri]

@TheMaster99 The guild moderators drop by now and then and have the mute capability, but they can't cover 24/7.

But of course we don't currently need more guild mods... just people to moderate the chat.

We'd suggest picking from those most active in the chat. Active mind you, not just those constantly lurking (like us).

Any chance well be able to comment on one anothers statuses in the near future? As is they seem disjointed and disconnected and difficult to respond to, and I think being able to comment on one anothers statuses will grow the community

@Inuyasha

That all depends on when Mahz will arise from his eternal slumber.

[KrystalKleo]

I don't know if this has been mentioned, or how to get a way around it.. but how to delete old PM's?

Presently you just send them to trash (open the convo and select that as folder in the bar at the top -> save).

@Shienvien

Thank you for that one. I just got back onto the site after a year of absence.

[Ellri]

@KrystalKleo That is the closest you get to deleting PMs. They still technically exist, but at least they're out of sight.

The four folders are simply labels at this stage of guild development.
